专利情报——将多个专利中的内容转化为技术、商业和法律见解——被认为是在技术竞争激烈的商业环境中获得竞争优势的关键因素。尽管基于关键词的专利智能工具因其简单易用而被广泛使用，但其局限性在于不能仅依靠所定义关键词的出现频率来代表关键技术概念和创造性知识。为此，本文提出了一个基于主体-行为-客体（SAO）的专利情报系统。可以从文本专利信息中提取的SAO结构被称为相关专利的专门知识和创造性发现。在对专利SAO结构进行语义分析的基础上，构建了专利地图和专利网络。该系统以地图和网络为基础，提供具体功能，包括识别技术趋势和重要专利、检测新技术和识别潜在侵权行为。本文详细描述了我们提出的专利情报系统的架构，并通过案例分析说明了系统的功能。我们预期我们建议的系统会纳入技术规划过程，以协助专家制订技术策略。(c) 2012 Elsevier Ltd.版权所有。
Patent intelligence-the transformation of content found in multiple patents into technical, business, and legal insight-is considered a key factor in gaining a competitive advantage in technologically competitive business environments. Although keyword-based patent intelligence tools are widely used due to their simplicity and ease of use, they are limited in that they cannot represent key technological concepts and inventive knowledge by relying only on the frequency of occurrence of defined keywords. As a remedy, this paper proposes a Subject-Action-Object (SAO)-based patent intelligence system. SAO structures that can be extracted from textual patent information are known as the expertise and inventive findings of the relevant patent. On the basis of semantic analysis of patent SAO structures, our proposed intelligence system constructs patent maps and patent networks. Building on the maps and networks, the system provides specific functionalities including identification of technology trends and significant patents, detection of novel technologies, and identification of potential infringement. This paper describes the architecture of our proposed patent intelligence system in detail, and illustrates the system's functionalities using case studies. We anticipate that our proposed system will be incorporated into the technology planning process to assist experts in the formulation of technology strategies. (c) 2012 Elsevier Ltd.
